Well here's what we've found out. Tested pressure before and after filter, changed lift pumps, tested for restrictions to the tank etc. It turned out to be a bad new airtex lift pump. Going to replace it again this week. I hope this one lasts longer than 200 miles! Thinking of adding another...

One other thing I noticed was that it was starting harder once and a while on that return trip also. I had to crank a bit longer before it fired off. Almost acted like my 06 CTD. Usually I barely touch the key on the 00 and it's running. Maybe this will help? Thanks again everybody!

The EGT probe is in the top of the exhaust manifold also.

Thanks for the advice everybody. I've got a buddy with an 03, pulling much heavier loads without the problems I'm having. He rarely gets to 1100. One difference is, he has is a CFM+ air horn and aftermarket air box, tube, filter etc. Don't know if that's makeing the difference or what?? I'll...

I have an 06 Mega Cab SRW. Having trouble with high EGTs when traveling 60 pulling rolling hills and 15000lbs loads. Higher speeds are better. It's an auto with 3. 73 gears using tow mode and sometime od off, doesn't seem to matter, I can reach 1350 often and easy. It has the edge with attitude...
